Spring Flora

Let us be grateful

to people who make us happy;

they are the charming gardeners

who make our souls blossom.

-Marcel Proust

A Year of Beautiful Places and Faces

After almost 7 months with our Gansu Girl, I felt a bit nostalgic for China and wanted to post a few of my favorite images of my precious daughters and their birth country, amazing China. 

Seriously, I try so hard not to pose Kira, in fact I have no idea where she learned how to "work the camera" like this, but I enjoy capturing her new interest in being photographed.

Very cute school children of Guandong Province

This has to be one of my all time favorite images from our journey to Shelby. Though our trip was rushed and there was barely enough time to eat, let alone take photographs, I took several of this Mother and her children.  This is a typical Hutong (small neighborhood) where the locals reside in the bigger cities.  I adored the history and antiquity of this country.
